THIS WEATHER IS SO DEPRESSING

 SPOTTED THESE COLD DROOPY DAFFODILS IN BAYFIELD THIS MORNING
A cold gray windy day with a mixture of rain and a few snowflakes.  I couldn't convince Pheebs to come out for a car ride this morning so I went by myself.  Drove into and around Bayfield for a bit and came home again.  This weather is so depressing.  Lorraine and I went to Goderich this afternoon with stops at Food Basics, Bell Telephone, and Walmart.

Al's Music Box Box:)) 409 is a song written by Brian Wilson, Mike Love, and Gary Usher for the American rock and roll band the Beach Boys. The song features Love singing lead vocals. It was originally released as the B-side of the single "Surfin Safari" (1962).  It was later released on their 1962 album Surfin Safari, and appeared again on their 1963 album Little Deuce Coupe.The song is credited for initiating the hot rod music craze of the 1960s.  "409" was inspired by Gary Usher's obsession with hot rod.  Its title refers to an automobile fitted with Chevrolet's 409-cubic-inch-displacement 'big block'V-8 engine. The song's narrator concludes with the description "My four-speed, dual-quad, positraction four-oh-nine." This version of the engine at 409 horsepower, achieving 1 hp per cubic inch – featured twin "D" series Carter AFB (Aluminum Four Barrel) carburetors ("dual-quads"). It was offered in new vehicles, Impala SS ("Super Sport"); Bel Air; Biscayne, and as replacement units in the 1962 model year.  It stayed one week on the Billboard Hot 100, at number 76, in October 1962.

THE REASSEMBLY OF SUMMER'S BOAT DOCKS IS UNDERWAY
GROANER'S CORNER:(( Two brunettes and a blonde are driving in the desert when, all of a sudden, their car breaks down.  As none of them have any motoring knowledge, they decide to walk. Each of them decides to take one thing with her.  The first brunette takes some food in case she gets hungry, the second brunette takes some water in case she gets thirsty and the blonde takes a car door.  When questioned about her choice, the blonde replies:  "Well, if I get hot, I can roll down the window!"

- Sink or swim?  The heck with it, I'm going in the pool. The dishes can wait!
- My friend asked me to name two things that hold water.  "Well, Dam."
- I think it is a good idea to wear two different deodorants, one under each armpit.  But that's just my two scents
- So this kid comes home from school in a panic and says Dad, they are all picking on me…are we pyromaniacs?  The dad looks down sadly and says. We arson.
- A man walks into a piano store and says, "I would like to buy a hairy piano." Perplexed, the sales clerk asked, "Why do you want a hairy piano?!" Nonchalantly, the customer responded, "Well, the last piano store only had Baldwins."
